Among 100 hundred selected persons of the 20th century who made tremendous contributions to our world, Albert Einstein was chosen as the man that made the greatest impact and then named the ‘person of the century’ by Time Magazine in 1999.
Albert Einstein was an ordinary man with an extraordinary devotion to his dream. He lived like a normal human with failure, limitations and rejections but ended up as one of the most revered human that ever lived. Einstein admitted his ordinary nature when he said “I have no special talent, I am only passionately curious.” However, Einstein drove his ability from being an ordinary person into a ‘superhuman’ status whose brain was severed before his remains was cremated when he died in 1955, because scientists believed he carried some superhuman abilities by the exercise of his brain.

It was not the innate ability of Einstein that distinguished him, he was not reckoned as a genius by birth through mutagenesis or some scientific explanations but he acquired his ‘genius’ status through undeterred devotion to his dream. He broke limits of devotion in his time before breaking record of achievement in his vocation. So we can!
